A minimal blog app for Django

Andablog is a blogging application for the Django
framework. Andablog comes with minimal
dependencies, making it effortless to integrate to existing Django
sites. It supports the latest Django and Python versions.

History

What is the point of all this? When this project got started blogging
apps for Django generally fell into one of these categories:

A full CMS framework.

A Django App but intended for blog-only sites.

A Django App but intended for either a blog-only site (the default)
or a site with a blog attached.

Though all three of these categories had great projects to choose from
any one of them could be frustrating to implement into (and maintain
within) an existing site. Simply because the app was not directly and
exclusively focused on the use case of a django site, and a blog (get
it?).

Andablog has a focus on integration-ease first and features second. So
if the focus of your Django site is something else and you want to add a
blog section to it you have come to the right place.

1.3.0 (2015-03-10)

Upgraded taggit to address an issue that was locking us to an older Django 1.7 version.

The author is now selectable when editing entries in the admin.

The list is limited to superusers and anyone with an andablog Entry permission.

The initial value is the current user.

1.1.0 (2014-12-01)

Blog entries can now have tags

The entry model now supports tags by way of the django-taggit package.

This affects the model only, there are no template examples or tags.

1.0.0 (2014-11-20)

Backwards Incompatible with 0.1.0.
This release includes a rename of the django app package from djangoandablog to andablog to better follow
community conventions. This of course is a very large breaking change, which is why the version is 1.0.
As this is the second version and we have been out such a short time. My hope is that few if any people
are using this app yet. If you are, please submit an issue on GitHub and I will try to help you migrate away.
